Gualter Resende

Gualter Resende was a Portuguese spy in the service of Thomas, Lord of Palmela. In 1557, he spied on Mary, Queen of Scots as she arranged to meet with her betrothed Prince Francis by the lake at sunset, despite her agreement to marry Thomas instead; he then reported this to Thomas, who retaliated by making his servant Miguel his whipping boy and criticizing Mary for her free will.
